British Standards

In the catalogs of the British Standards the joints are divided into different classes. For each class of seam weld a corresponding design SN-curve is determined. An example of such a catalog entry is given in the following figure. The classification of the seam welds depends on the following:

• The geometrical arrangement and proportions of the detail

• The direction of fluctuating stress relative to the detail

• The location of possible crack initiation at the detail

• Methods of manufacture and detail
